There I Go Again...

Yeah,
you're going to look at the details, I want you to invite me over for
a chat. I've been at this a long time and that's
because I push myself to learn more and ride that wave cause I'm not
done. I see myself forever digging deep, you might say I'm an
anthropologist of the human psyche... a student of the arts &
sciences... always looking forward to learn the newest and the
latest, applying it to all that I already know and realizing
there's always a new more efficient way to get the project done...
always more and different ways to entertain and tell a tale...
I'm a shooter @heart, I see the world through a virtual lens... I've
been writing since I was a kid, dabble in guitar and midi music
production...

I
love film, music, writing, reading, sci-fi and gaming... I love
getting my hands on the latest software like, Blender 3D, AFX,
Photoshop, Lightroom, Motion, Avid, Final Cut... Love the cloud...
I have a lot of my work on You Tube
